Wireless sensor networks promise fine-grain monitoring in a wide variety of environments. Many of these environments (e.g., indoor environments or habitats) can be harsh for wire...
Abstract—Impulse Radio Ultra-wideband (IR-UWB) communication has proven an important technique for supporting highrate, short-range, low-power communication. These are necessary ...
: The IEEE 802.15.4 and Zigbee are protocols aimed at low-duty and low-power wireless sensor networks. Continuously monitoring applications such as applications of structural healt...
This paper presents SHiMmer, a wireless platform for sensing and actuation that combines localized processing with energy harvesting to provide long-lived structural health monito...
Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are subject to significant resource constraints. Particularly, routing protocols for lowrate WSNs suffer from maintaining routing metrics and sta...
